That night, Chen Xiao and I discussed the details of the divorce, with his parents insisting on listening in.

I straightforwardly presented the plan:

"The house was bought by you before marriage, so it belongs to you; there's around two hundred thousand in savings after marriage, split equally."

Upon hearing this, his mother immediately jumped up:

"Why should the savings be split with you? All this money was earned by my son, you shouldn't take a single penny with you."

"After marrying Chen Xiao, I also worked and earned money, these savings were accumulated by both of us. In the event of a divorce, of course, I should also get half," I replied.

His mother said, "When you married into our Chen family, you became part of our family. Your person belongs to our family, so the money you earn naturally belongs to our family too."

"Oh, by the way, besides money, the jewelry and valuable items purchased during the marriage must stay, clothes can be taken away," I added.

"Now that Chen Xiao has cheated, why should I leave with nothing?" I questioned.

His mother retorted, "I don't care about that, as long as you leave this house, you are not allowed to take anything with you."

What kind of fallacy is this?

I felt that arguing with her further would make me appear abnormal.

I asked Chen Xiao, "Say something, what do you think?"

Chen Xiao hesitated for a while before saying, "I think my mom also has a point."

"Are you out of your mind?" I couldn't bear it anymore, "You cheated during the marriage, got the other woman pregnant, and now you want a divorce from me. I've been lenient with you, and you still want to take advantage of me?"

"I'll ask you one last time, do you agree or disagree to split the savings equally?"

Chen Xiao remained silent, then his mother interjected, hands on her hips, "Disagree. We need to keep this money for marrying a new daughter-in-law, and raising grandchildren, don't even think about it."

Since they were heartless, I decided to be firm too. A cheating scumbag like him should pay some price.

"Fine, let's forget about the previous proposal. Chen Xiao, if you don't take the two hundred thousand, don't even think about divorcing me."

"Are you crazy?" his mother pointed at me, "We won't even give you ten thousand, let alone two hundred thousand? Ha, you're dreaming!"

I didn't bother arguing further with the old woman, I went straight to the bedroom to message Pang Xiaomin:

【I've agreed to the divorce, it's Chen's family finding all sorts of excuses to delay, you talk to them.】

Thoughtfully, I also included the location of Chen's family address.

In less than half an hour, Pang Xiaomin rushed over.
